"What a gentleman!"
"Yes, just now when we were badmouthing Mr. Jiang, he didn’t stoop to our level!"
"That’s the mark of a great man. Zhang Wenkang is nothing compared to Mr. Jiang, he’s just trash!"
"Mr. Jiang is so cool, I really want to get to know him! I’d be happy even to be a subordinate!"
"You’re willing, but do you think he’d notice you?"
The classmates all began enviously discussing.
"Bastard! It’s all your fault! I’m going to kill you!"
A burst of angry shouting broke out, and Wang Qiancheng fiercely sprung up from the ground, pouncing on Zhang Wenkang and ruthlessly laying into him.
"Throw them both out!" Sun Zhengzhou frowned and ordered in a low voice.
Thud thud thud!
Several security guards ca forward, grabbed the two n, and started dragging them out of the banquet hall, with Wang Qiancheng continuing to punch and kick Zhang Wenkang during the process.
By the window, a young man wearing glasses glanced at the two being dragged away, then turned to look out the window, catching sight of Jiang Chen and his two companions leaving the hotel, a sly smile curling up at the corner of his mouth: "Jiang Chen, we’ll et again!"
Jiang Chen and his companions had already reached the parking lot, and as if sensing sothing, Jiang Chen turned to look towards the window of the fifth-floor banquet hall, locking eyes with the young man with glasses.
The young man with glasses showed a flattering smile and waved at Jiang Chen.
"What’s wrong?" Dong Yu saw Jiang Chen stop and asked with confusion.
"Who’s that?" Jiang Chen gestured towards the window.
Dong Yu and Yu Xiaoxiao both looked up in the direction of the fifth-floor banquet hall.
"That’s also one of our high school classmates, Zheng Wenming, what’s wrong?" Dong Yu said softly.
Yu Xiaoxiao smiled slightly: "Zheng Wenming’s family isn’t very well-off, he probably heard that you’re the chairman of Yi Chen and wants to curry favor with you."
"Maybe."
Jiang Chen raised an eyebrow.
Not very well-off? Yet his clothes and watch earlier didn’t seem to imply that.
Turning to look at Dong Yu and Yu Xiaoxiao, Jiang Chen spoke quietly: "Sorry for interrupting your class reunion. As compensation, let treat you to a al!"
"Sure!"
Dong Yu nodded happily, hesitated for a mont, and then softly asked: "Mr. Jiang, do you have plans after dinner?"
"? I’m going back to the Yue Family after dinner!" Jiang Chen replied nonchalantly.
Dong Yu’s face flickered with disappointnt, smiling as she said, "I’ll go back with you, okay?"
"Of course." Jiang Chen shrugged.
"I’ll join too. My family went to the Yue Family this afternoon and told to head there myself. How about it? You don’t mind, right?" Yu Xiaoxiao said aningfully, smiling at Dong Yu.
Dong Yu’s face flushed slightly, glared at Yu Xiaoxiao, and said: "Why are you asking ? Ask Mr. Jiang."
Turning to Jiang Chen, Dong Yu explained, "The matriarch of the Yue Family, Yu Hui, is my aunt and also Xiaoxiao’s aunt."
"Oh?" Jiang Chen was slightly surprised, casually saying, "Then let’s go together."
The three of them ate a al together and then drove to the Yue Family.
...
In the bamboo forest on the outskirts of Zheng City.
Whoo... screech!
A Humvee stopped at the edge of the bamboo forest, and Jiang Chen’s party got out of the car.
"Mr. Jiang!"
Yue Tingheng ca up with a full face of smiles, glanced at Dong Yu and the others, and said with a chuckle, "Xiao Yu, Xiao Xiao, you guys ca too."
"Tingheng bro!"
"Tingheng bro!"
Dong Yu and another greeted Yue Tingheng.
"Why is it still you on duty?" Jiang Chen asked with a light chuckle.
Yue Tingheng smiled slightly, "Grandpa’s birthday is tomorrow, and so guests have already arrived today, so I’m here to greet them."
"Oh," Jiang Chen nodded in understanding and handed over the keys, "Then we’ll go in first."
"Okay!" Yue Tingheng responded, taking the car keys.
Jiang Chen and his two companions walked towards the small path in the bamboo forest.
"Haha!"
"Alright!"
"Beat him up!"
Before they even left the bamboo forest, shouts reached the ears of Jiang Chen and his group.
"It’s my brother’s voice, looks like my family is already here!" Yu Xiaoxiao said with a light laugh.
The trio turned a corner, and the small square of the Yue Family appeared before them.
On the square, two young n were sparring while a group of teenage boys and girls watched and laughed heartily.
"Xiaoxiao, Xiao Yu, you guys are here!" A shout was heard as a young spectator joyfully greeted Jiang Chen’s group.
"Zhuo Kun, you guys arrived early!" Dong Yu said with a light laugh.
Zhuo Kun smiled gently, glanced at Yu Xiaoxiao a couple of tis, looked at Jiang Chen and asked with puzzlent, "And this is...?"
"This is my boyfriend," Yu Xiaoxiao answered quickly, taking Jiang Chen’s arm.
"Boyfriend?!" Zhuo Kun’s face slightly changed, a shade of sadness flashed in his eyes.
Dong Yu rolled her eyes at Yu Xiaoxiao, speaking irritably, "Xiaoxiao, stop teasing Zhuo Kun, he’ll take it seriously."
"Haha, okay, I’ll stop teasing. This is Mr. Jiang Chen, he is the head of the Jiang Family of Jincheng and is here to attend Grandpa Yue’s birthday banquet," Yu Xiaoxiao said with a light laugh, releasing Jiang Chen’s arm.
Jiang Chen looked helplessly at Yu Xiaoxiao, "I just played the role of a shield for Dong Yu, I thought I was going to do it for you too!"
"What? Being a shield for this beauty is an honor, isn’t it, Zhuo Kun?" Yu Xiaoxiao said arrogantly, raising her head.
Zhuo Kun hurriedly nodded, "Yes, it’s an honor."
Jiang Chen glanced at Zhuo Kun, then at Yu Xiaoxiao, and suddenly understood, patting Zhuo Kun’s shoulder aningfully, "Zhuo Kun, I predict you’re going to suffer from an incurable disease!"
"Incurable disease?" Zhuo Kun furrowed his brow, puzzled.
"Mr. Jiang, what’s wrong with Zhuo Kun?" Dong Yu, knowing Jiang Chen’s dical skills, beca nervous.
Yu Xiaoxiao also looked worriedly at Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen smiled gently, "What? Dong Yu, can’t you see? Zhuo Kun has caught bronchitis before anything even started; if they really got together, it would turn into lung cancer!"
"Bron... Haha!" Dong Yu imdiately caught on and covered her mouth to laugh.
"Bronchitis? Impossible, I don’t smoke and I exercise regularly, how could I have bronchitis?" Zhuo Kun spoke cluelessly.
Pfft!
"Haha..."
Yu Xiaoxiao also caught on and couldn’t help but laugh out loud, and Jiang Chen laughed heartily.
"What’s going on? What’s so funny?"
A shout was heard, several n and won who were watching the festivities ca over, a young man looked at Jiang Chen with hostility and then turned his burning gaze to Dong Yu, "Xiao Yu, what’s so funny?"
"Nothing." Dong Yu put away her smile and responded indifferently.
Yu Xiaoxiao glanced at Zhuo Kun, saw that he was still clueless, and facepald, making a gesture of despair.
